The Lease must contain a provision on behalf of the Vendor to pay the service charges in respect of unoccupied units in order to ensure that all services can be provided. If there are lifts in the building, please confirm that the owners of flats on the ground and basement floors will not be required to contribute towards the cost of maintenance and renewal.

Has the Lease plan been approved by the Land Registry and if not when will they be lodged for this purpose? Will control of the Management Company (if any) be handed over to purchasers on completion of the last sale or earlier?
I have been on the look out for a ground for flat up to £245,000 and found one close by in Malmesbury I like with a park and station in the vicinity, however it only has 61 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in Malmesbury suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error acquiring a lease with such few years left?
Should you require a mortgage the shortness of the lease may be a potential deal breaker. Discount the offer by the amount the lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted.

Two months into purchasing a residence in Malmesbury. Conveyancing lawyer has told us the title is "Leasehold". Does this adversely affect our HSBC valuation?
Malmesbury conveyancing does not in most situations involve leasehold houses. The key consideration here is the unexpired lease term and the ground rent. If there are hundred of years years remaining with a nominal rent, it's essentially freehold, so it shouldn't impact the saleability significantly.
At the other extreme, if it's, say, 50 years it will have a material impact on the saleability, and probably wouldn't be acceptable to the bank. The length of lease and ground rent will be stated in the lease which should be made available to your solicitor.
